Wait, wait, wait. So Anne Rice based Lestat on her husband, and she started writing after the death of her child. That's what the Claudia storyline is about. So... Anne Rice is Louis?! Louis is a self-insert character? Is that why she wrote him so irresistible? And so hot? 😳
But also, I just love how she was apparently horny for philosophical vampires (I'm not judging), and we're still benefitting from her legacy of doing what the fuck she wants. What a legend.
